Summary
I am deeply passionate about social care and committed to enhancing the well-being of both individuals and communities. My ultimate goal is to contribute meaningfully in areas such as child and family support, disability services, and addiction support.

Driven by a proactive and energetic spirit, I approach my training with a clear focus on building a solid career foundation. Beyond the basics covered in coursework, I actively seek out opportunities to gain deeper insights and hands-on experience. My dedication lies not only in acquiring knowledge but also in applying it effectively to make a lasting impact.
